1920 S double dye on the date? Is it a New discovery?

At least we agreed!

See this is a double dye, how ever if you look at the 1969 it looks like strike doubling, so you see double dye can happen in different parts of the coin and look like a double strike

 

Oh boy
Boss.. You have it all wrong. The 1969 Doubled Die is only 1 strike. The image on the Die was Doubled. Nothing to do with Strike Doubling.

Doubled Die.. Not dye!

1 strike, 1 coin.

 

This might explain it better: Let's say you DO have a doubled die coin. Let's say the doubling completely matches the reference pics. That coin was struck 1 time.

 

No not one strike, because no dye has ever been made that is doubled in its self, how ever between the collar and the strike is where doubling is produced, now if you think other wise do more research thanks!

 

Oh, Lord...

 

What do you think dye bounce is, hello that’s more than one strike, and so is a coin that stays in the collar and is struck again, sorry that you have not done your research on this matter, however that doesn’t make you uneducated just makes you lazy on this matter!

 

And double dye is major doubling and double Strike is minor doubling but both are the same! Thanks

 

Did you look at the webpages I shared with you? Nobody is ever going to agree with you Boss. You don't get it.

Again.. It's Die.. Not Dye

 

Oh boy I give up. One last thing, Boss, you just aren't getting it. Do some studying, check the links that Paddyman posted. I have been collecting coins longer than you have been alive and am still learning new things all the time. If you are going to continue collecting, you need to learn more about the coins and the minting process. Good luck, and I hope you continue to learn and grow in the hobby.

Anyway thanks for your input, sure I will hear from you again soon on another coin or so, as always I say a coin value is only worth as much as you want it to be!!

 

Haha, these threads always give me a laugh , with as many of these as paddyman98 deals with im suprised he hasnt gone crazy yet .

Thanks,
Jacob

 

I try not to.. I have enough craziness with my job and kids

We must remember. Every CoinTalk member has a right to his or hers opinion. I try my best to correct any errors made by uneducated people, and I mean that in a respectable way.

✌ peace

 

Boss, these very patient people are trying to help you learn. Here is a vivid example (probably the most popular in all US coinage) of a true "doubled die" coin. A coin die is one of the two metallic pieces that are used to strike a coin, one per each side of the coin.

 

Actually, a coins value is NOT " worth as much as you want it to be."
